When an endless winter hits for the second year in a row, Wylodine is left alone to tend to the crop until she decides to leave and start over. She embarks on a journey with a small group of exiles and faces dangerous strangers and violent cults along the way. As the most valuable member of the group due to her ability to make things grow, Wylodine searches for a place where hope can thrive in a changing world.
